#24 CD Sunday Plus

Good afternoon everyone. I am a bit late again posting our challenge at CD Sunday Plus. Thank you to everyone who entered the last challenge. It's going to be tricky choosing a Top Three from so many entries. It's Jocelyn's turn to host the challenge and again it's Anything Goes as long as you use something from a CD or USB or digi download.

Here is my inspiration for you.


It's another Christmas card. This time with a Victorian image from Joanne Sheen's CD 'A Victorian Christmas'. This was an easy card to make. I used a pre-scored scalloped white card and added the background paper from the CD. Then the image of the Victorian family stirring the pudding and no doubt making a wish. The greeting reads '....with love from all the family'. So this will be winging it's across the water to my 2nd cousin in Johnstone  City USA.

I hope you are finding time to make your Christmas cards. Mine are being made but very slowly. I am just not in the mood for Christmas yet!! And you've got to be in the mood to craft don't you?

Have a great week and I hope it keeps dry for you....wet days her every day grrrrr

#23 CD Sunday Plus 'Anything Goes'

Welcome to another CD Sunday Plus 'Anything Goes' Challenge. I hosted the last challenge and boy did you make my choice of Top Three difficult. There were so many fabulous makes. To see if you were chosen for my Top Three pop over to CD Sunday Plus ((link in sidebar).

Here is my inspiration for you this time.


I have used a lovely CD by Debbie Moore. This was one of the CDs gifted by her to the design team. It's called 'Unicorn Dreams'

The background used was a pre-scored card with indented corners. The toppers and sentiment were all from the CD.

I hope you will join us at CD Sunday Plus. We have Joycelyn hosting this time. The rules have changed slightly, too not only include using CDS, but also Digi downloads or USBs.

Thank you for visiting and if you leave a comment again Thank You. They are always read and appreciated.

Have a lovely week.

Unstampabelles #95



Sorry I am late with this posting but I have been away for a few days to the wonderful Lake District and forgot to schedule!!


(can't take credit for the pic)
The Autumnal colours were amazing. Isn't Mother Nature wonderful.

Our November challenge at Unstampabelles is #95 'Paradise Pretties and Tropical Delights'. The twist is 'Into the Wild'

Here is my inspiration for you.


I have used an old image I had stored My Pictures. So I am not sure where it came from. If anyone recognises it please let me know so I give give credit.

I used white card stock for the basic card and added a pink matt.. My Grand daughter was moving to her first home with her partner and I know flamingoes are popular with the young so that inspired me to use it as a New Home card. I had a flamingo die which was a freebie in a magazine so I die cut the second one in a jolly pink. The sentiments were also in a pack I had for eons and the colours matched perfectly . I also printed off the matching insert but forgot to take a photograph of it. before I posted it. I don't know whether or not tehy are going 'Into the Wild' but starting a new life together so young seems like going into teh UNknown! Starting off on an intrepid adventure. I'm sure they'll have a wonderful life together and I wish them all the luck and love in the world!!

As usual there is a Craft Gift voucher as a prize so for more inspiration pop over to Unstampabelles (link in sidebar)
